Manufacturer for Peace of Mind
After purchasing it here, I had it replaced at a Motorcycle shop nearby. The last time I replaced it, it lasted about 27,000 km on a VX3 of the same manufacturer with a top ranking. We know from the last Chain that the silver plating of this Manufacturer is solid. Black and gold chains seem to be in fashion these days, but silver plating is more suitable for a motorcycle that is closer to the classic style. I would like to break in the new Chain until the initial elongation after the replacement. View detail

did Non-seal Chain
Purchased for Replacement because the growth of Chain in ns1 has been mixed.
The number of LINKs in ns1 is 128 LINKs, but 130 LINKs are purchased (Due to change in the number of items)
Durability is not that great since it is non-seal, but the non-seal chain is useful since it can be washed with kerosene. (Deprecated)

Box is Upgrading
I used to borrow the Chain Cut & Crimp tool most of the time, but I decided to purchase it again because I thought it would be worthwhile to own a proper tool.
The contents remain the same, except that the box has been Upgraded to a Gold box and the Instruction Manual is new.
As always, very easy to use and secure Chain exchange.
You need a 19mm Socket or glasses Wrench or a 27mm Wrench (I use a MONKEY Wrench instead of 27mm).
It is often said that the pin breaks when cutting a chain, but if the holder is firmly fixed and the pin of the chain and the pin of the Chain Cut & Crimp tool are straight, the pin will not break. I have never had a broken pin.
It is an important point to ensure that you work with Kashimaru-kun's Holder because there are positions A and B and a place where Chain's Plate fits tightly into it.

DIDChain of Trust
DID 520VX3, Gold chain with 120 LINKs, CBR650F's chain size is originally 525, so this time it will be DownConversion. 118 LINKs, so it needs to be cut by 1 piece.
By the way, I have always decided to use DID when I do Chain exchange. This is because DID, RK, and EK have been the most responsive when I have communicated with their respective Supports regarding problems with the compatibility chart.
I see that 520VX3 is a MODEL that uses XRing instead of O-ring for Seal shape.
In terms of Category, ZVM-X is available on top of VX3 in the case of DID, but the thickness of the plate is thicker here, so it is stronger but heavier. Also, ZVM-X is said to be effective for models over 1000cc and for vehicles running on circuits, but we decided that ZVM-X is inappropriate for CBR650F, which is basically used only for touring, has an engine displacement volume of 650cc, and has no sharp output characteristics. We have decided that it is not suitable for CBR650F.
The 520VX3 has an applicable engine displacement volume of 250 to 800cc, and for the aforementioned reasons, we thought it would be just right for 650cc.
There are three types of plating:steel, silver plating, and gold plating. steel is bare and prone to rust, so it was not an option, but I could not tell the difference between silver and gold. I saw some people saying "choose by color," but I thought that was wrong because of the price difference, so I asked the manufacturer.
I was told that there is a difference between "Steel→Silver plating" and "Steel→Silver plating→Gold plating", and that Gold plating has a double layer of plating, so the plating layer is more durable. Gold plating has a double layer of plating, so the plating layer is more durable.
I would normally try to do the work myself, but I hear that Disk grinder costs around 5,000 yen, CrimpTool around 10,000 yen, and DID Crimp has a degree of difficulty. Even if I buy the tool, it will take 10 years or more to replace the chain next time, considering that it has been 9 years since the car was delivered and the chain has not been fully extended...? If I buy a tool, I might be able to do it by myself after 10 years...but I thought it would be better to ask a store to do it if the span is that long, so I asked Motorcycle shop this time. The labor cost was 11,000 yen including the replacement of the front and rear sprocket.
To be honest, I wondered if I would be able to really feel the Conversion since it is only 5mm wide. However, when I opened the Axel, I felt a slight improvement in the feel of the rpm or the acceleration (I can't deny the possibility of a brush-boost effect). (I can't deny the possibility of a Brush-bo effect.)
Also, at the same time, we are replacing the Rear sprocket with an OEM→SuperSprotex, so we can't deny the influence of this.
The only thing that remains is durability...I can't say anything about this until I continue to use it.

Not too bad, not too bad. Cheapness that can be replaced immediately if it gets damaged.
Used on a SUPER CUB for commuting, lots of stop and go, mostly in the rain, and lots of luggage, so I think it's a tough environment for Chain.
I have replaced the Chain about 5 times now and this is the product every time. Although it does not have outstanding performance, I have never had a Chain-related Trouble, and of course, it has never broken. This experience gives me peace of mind.
Since the LINK is not expensive, it should be replaced as soon as the rattling or rusting of the LINK becomes severe.

Looks great, feels fine.
Sorry, this is a re-submission.
Wrong notation in previous post. (118Piece) I bought it believing that it was too long and I could not install it, so I gave it one star. (108Piece) I bought it again in
Since it is made by DID, there is no problem with the product itself, and it follows the rotation smoothly, so I have no complaints. Since the outside is gold, it looks more gorgeous and gives me an uplifting feeling that motivates me to work harder, so I am glad that I replaced it.
I know this may sound harsh, but I would like to see the misrepresentation corrected as soon as possible, so I will give it an overall rating of 4 stars.

Purchased to replace 3 items at the same time with Driven Sprocket and Driven Sprocket.
We chose this product, which is 20% enhanced, as it claims to be Professional.
JA−07 has a Chain Cover, so I tend to neglect to check it on a regular basis.
For safety and security, we want to pay attention to Chain.

Necessary and sufficient, but Plating type is recommended.
The chain slider broke due to age, so we asked the maintenance shop to replace it. The Sprocket was also shaved and the Chain was deteriorated, so we had to replace it.
There were so many different types to choose from that it was difficult to make a decision, but I decided to go with this one because my main use for it is as a daily driver. I chose this one based on the recommendation of my mechanic, who knew my financial situation.
In the beginning "No Plating" I thought about using the Gold type, but then I remembered that it was less likely to rust after I changed the OEM to the Gold type that I had been using.
After the exchange, I have to say that I am very happy with the results.
1, Occurred occasionally while driving "Pushing Pushing" The noise "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
2, I feel that changes in driving force in response to Axel opening can be transmitted more immediately than before.

ligh weight, durable, strong
I ordered a 520 conversion kit for my Hayabusa 1300R which include DID ZVM-X chain 520 with 116 link (stoch with 530 with 106 link). DID ZVM-X chain 520 has ligh weight compared to 530 stock but still strong enough, full kit include DID 520 ZVM-X chain, front and rear sprocket weight only about 2.5kg, I think I've lost 50 percent of the weight.

Lighter than OEM
My impression after using new SUNSTAR before and after Sprocket, and Bell Hammeryamanaka special for all Rear sliding parts.
When pressed, only the rear side is noticeably lighter.
Also, SHIFT UP is now easier to do.
I don't know about durability since it is only a test run.
I am satisfied with it, but to be honest, it didn't change as much as I expected and I personally would have preferred a more subdued color, so I'm afraid I gave it 4 stars.

A useful tool to have!
I bought this to replace the RC390 OEM chain that was a bad chain that would stretch easily even after maintenance.
I purchased this product along with DID's 520VX3 (ZJJoint included).
The work method is clearly explained in the video of Mr. DID on the product page, so it is recommended that you watch that video before working on the product.
I think the product is worth the price, but since it is a Chain Replacement Tool from ChainManufacturer, I have a feeling of trust in it. I decided on this product.
I was worried about my first Crimp job, but thanks to the Instruction Manual and DID's video, I was able to work Smoothly and I am very satisfied.

Safe and reliable DID
The OEM chain of the KTM DUKE200 is a 112-piece 520 steel seal chain that will last for 20,000 km if it is properly fueled and not used in extreme conditions such as rapid acceleration and deceleration. I guess.
Then, RB replaced it with Steel Non-seal, which is said to be RK's Chain, but it is not so good. I can't complain because it costs 6,800 yen including labor charge, but after 8,000 km, I started to notice the hardened joints and replaced it.
I tried Steel Non-seal for a long time, but it was too fast, so the adjustment was too large, it rusted a lot, and it became hard, I'll try to replace it with a better one this time.
D.I.D. would definitely be VX3 Silver, the successor version of VX2. VX2⇒Upgrading to VX3! VX2⇒VX3 and it was 15,500 yen including labor charge, which seems promising.
The X-Ring, which was also used in VX2, is said to be more durable than the O-ring.
Combined with the Brushbow effect, it is really light and airy.
I chose silver, which is rust-resistant, so it looks cool!
The work kill is a Crimp, so it's a PRO grade, the heart and soul of a motorcycle, so if you have any concerns, have it replaced at a store.

I am glad I bought it. It was expensive, though.
I like the idea of working without thinking and getting the dimensions on my own.
However, due to its shape, it cannot be worked at Sprocket's place.
I need a 19mm and 27mm Spanner but I don't have one.
Instead, with 3/4in Socket and MONKEY. No particular inconvenience.
I'll leave a Memo for next time, the NORMAL Exhaust Bracket is in the way.
It is more efficient to remove the Chain Guard or Exhaust Bracket.
The old Chain seemed to have grown more than expected and the Adachi LINK was not reachable.
Before cutting the chain, the Axle should be pulled more toward the Front side.
